Lawn Hill - Burketown

Monday at Lawn Hill National Park started with a 3 1/2 hr. walk to the Upper Gorge coming back through Middle Gorge with it's waterfalls and on to a couple of lookouts.  Very steep climbs over rugged rocks.  By the time we were back to camp it was 36deg.  In the afternoon we did a canoe trip up Lawn Hill Creek to the waterfalls BEAUTIFUL!!!
Today we are now in Burketown - the Barra Capital of Australia - so of course we have had barra for dinner.
We are hoping for a Morning Glory tomorrow morning.  The locals say it is a possibility as the winds are blowing the right direction and they had one on Sunday morning.  I have my fingers crossed!

    Your 36 degrees is a bit of a contrast to our 2 degrees the other morning in Mooloolah Valley. It was 4 degrees when we went to bed.
